New NIHR Global Health Call

NIHR RIGHT extends the reach of support to address the health issues faced by Official Development Assistance (ODA) – eligible countries as given on the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development’s (OECD) Development Assistance Committee (DAC) list. RIGHT aims to fund cutting-edge interdisciplinary applied health research in key areas in ODA-eligible countries where a strategic and targeted investment can result in a transformative impact.

NIHR RIGHT Call 2 intends to provide targeted investment in mental health research in ODA-eligible countries, through supporting applied research on the development and evaluation of interventions to improve outcomes for those affected by mental health issues.

The call will launch on 3 January 2019 with the deadline for receipt of Stage 1 applications being 27 March 2019.
